The Tree of Wooden Clogs is a 1978 Italian film written and directed by Ermanno Olmi. The film depicts the life of Lombard peasants in a cascina (farmhouse) during the late 19th century. It shares similarities with the earlier Italian neorealist movement, focusing on the lives of the poor and casting actual farmers and locals instead of professional actors.
